Recent market data shows that the cryptocurrency market has experienced intense volatility. According to on-chain data, the total liquidation amount across the entire network in the past 24 hours reached $117 million. Among these, long positions accounted for the majority, totaling $84.25 million, while short positions liquidated amounted to $32.73 million.

Looking at individual coins, the situation varies. Bitcoin longs were hit hardest, with a single-day liquidation of $41.55 million, while short liquidations were only $1.99 million — indicating that retail traders taking long positions bore greater pressure. Ethereum also fared poorly, with long liquidations of $15.20 million and short liquidations of $4.27 million.

Even more astonishing, in these 24 hours, 54,731 traders worldwide were forcibly liquidated. The largest single liquidation occurred on Hyperliquid's BTC-USD contract, where a single position was liquidated with a loss of $7.02 million. Such large-scale liquidations often reflect market sentiment volatility and the risks associated with concentrated leverage positions.

Another day of long positions being slaughtered, retail investors are really suffering. 7.02 million liquidation in one go, this guy is probably back to the pre-liberation era. BTC shorts lost only 1.98 million, longs over 40 million, the gap is huge. More than 50,000 people were liquidated, leverage is truly a poison. With a liquidation volume of 117 million in one day, I think I'll just play chain games honestly.

Retail investors have been wiped out again, this time especially tragic Oh my god, over 50,000 people liquidated in one day, how crazy is that The over 40 million liquidation of BTC longs, made me feel sad for retail investors for two seconds Leverage is really a thing, a single all-in can lead to permanent goodbye That Hyperliquid order of over 7 million, I don't know which big brother's account it was, just evaporated Still, you have to protect your own principal, don't be swayed by market sentiment Over 100 million liquidated in one day, this industry is truly growing wildly, with no rules to speak of

ngl the leverage situation here is just... taxonomically a mess. 54k liquidations in 24h? that's evolutionary dead-end behavior right there. let me pull up my spreadsheet real quick — the multi:short ratio on btc is absolutely unhinged, statistically speaking.
